Under the guidance of home economics instructors Miss Kathe- rine Lowe and Mrs. Helen Pease, there was exhibited a bewildering and beautiful variety of dresses and costumes for every purpose, capably modeled by the makers themselves. For the better part of ment of soft music and the com-| ments of a narrator there was a constant array of the latest in high school girls enrolled in the various home economies classes. A capacity audience almost filled the auditorium to admire and ap- |plaud. Dress shops in town had | best look to their laurels, for the young ladies definitely proved that, given a few yards of material and a sewing machine, they can com+ pete with the best in ready-made fashions. Following the fashion show, there | was the annual election of officers. | The nominating committee headed | by Mrs. Alice Roberts presented | a slate of prospective officers who | were voted into office by motions | from the floor without opposition. | PTA officers for the coming yeat} are: Mrs. Anna Roasam, presi-| dent, Mrs. Irene Brooks, vice-pres- ident, Mrs. Rebecea Martin, re- cording secretary, Mrs. Flora Gar- jcia, corresponding secretary, Mr. | Irene Russell, historian. | Births BABY BOY ORMES Mr. and.

STOWES HAVE DAUGHTER Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lyman Stowe, 117 Duval Street, announce the birth of their daughter, Susan Clara, on April 26, at Monroe Gen- | Kellar Watson, treasurer, and Miss | Sister Catherine |To Be Honored At CMI Tomorrow Word was received today that Mrs. Margaret Rushing Sweat, one of the first of Sister Catherine’s hundreds of pupils, is visiting in Key West this week. Although un- able to stay for the C. M. I. Alum- nae Tea tomorrow in honor of Sister Catherine of the Blessed Sacrament, Mrs. Sweat had a long visit with her reminiscing about her earlier pupils. Sister Catherine’s first teaching | post was at the Convent (now the Academy) of the Holy Names in Tampa, and it was here in 1917 that Mrs. Sweat was a member of one of Sister Catherine’s first classes. In 1920 Sister Catherine was transferred to the Convent of Mary Immaculate in Key West, jand has graduated most of the present Alumnae during her more than thirty years of teaching Fcre. It has long been her wish to see all her graduates again and to meet their husbands and children. This year the C. M. I. Alumnae Association, under the direction of its president, Mrs. Eva Lee New- house, decided to make this wish come true. A committee of four: Mrs. Cleora Knight Johnson, Mrs. Mizpah Perez Pierce, and Mrs. Carrie Lester Roberts, headed h: Mrs. Miriam Parks Poliszuk as general chairman, was appointed to make all necessary arrange- ments. This Committee has since called on other members of the Alumnae Association for assist ance, and everyone has been most generous in their willingness to help. No formal invitations have been issued, but the plan was announ- ced at the Annual Alumnae Ban- quet on Easter Monday and was enthusiastically received. Sister Catherine has graduated hundreds and hundreds of Key West eee |during her years of service, an \seaieey as possible will ‘be there with their families tomorrow for a visit with their beloved former teacher. : Mrs. Eva Lee Newhouse, presi- dent of the Alumnae Association, said today that quite a number of Sister Catherine’s former pupils, who are now living out-of-town, are also expected at the tea, and it is anticipated that many other local graduates who have not seen Sister Catherine — or each other —in a long time, will meet agaip tomorrow at 5 p. m. on the Con- vent lawn to honor a_ brilliant teacher who has dedicated her eral Hospital.
